I would definitely send the unit back to Outlaw to have them review the lock up issue. If you're experiencing it every day, that would annoy me too.

I"m down to the no-audio issue on occaision, and sometimes when I switch Dolby modes I get static coming through the speakers. The first problem is more prevalent than the second, and I'm managing regardless.

I've had one lock up in the past 3-4 months. I unplug the unit for a minute and it clears it up.
